How do I start?
To begin you may contact us, or begin by filling out our pre-planning form. This will start the process of arrangements. Our staff will contact you and walk you through the steps of arrangement. We will discuss cremation options, financing and choose personalized options if desired by you or your family.
-
Do I have to pay in advance?
Preplanning is merely making your wishes known; however, most families who do this choose to pre-fund the service. A preneed insurance policy, life insurance policy or other payment options can all be arranged before the time of death. At the time of death, services must be paid, so having options ahead of time can also reduce other stress related to losing someone. Doing so will relieve the financial burden on your family and offers peace of mind to you.

What is the purpose of a funeral?
A funeral or memorial service provides an opportunity for the living to show respect for the deceased and pay tribute to their life. It provides a framework to freely and openly express our beliefs, feelings, and thoughts about the death of our loved one. It gives us permission to grieve our loss, share in solidarity, and gain strength from others who are experiencing the same loss.
